You can do what you want with your money and good luck to you. You should show other people the same courtesy but that's what you fail to do; anyone who views anything remotely differently is labelled as something varying from Tory to Fascist (on the rare days you can distinguish between the two).

You've said on here before you are pretty wealthy, and again, good luck to you. That does however leave you open to claims of hypocrisy because you could give that wealth away to help others, as that's what you want others to do

You could also have a bit more humility about people less well off who view things differently, but again, you never do, you look firmly down your nose at them and make no attempt to understand their position. This is pretty common on the left nowadays and it's why many left wing parties have lost a lot of the working class vote. Paul Embery wrote a pretty good book on it
